When all is said and done, voters are faced with two key questions about Sen. Barack Obama (“Barack Stabber,” April 30).

Does he share the Rev. Jeremiah Wright’s anti-white, anti-American radical worldview? If not, how utterly desperate for “black street cred” does a man have to be to sit through that rhetoric for 20 years?

That someone would not only endure that, but have this charlatan preside over his wedding and the baptism of his children, all for political gain, is to me much more disturbing.

Obama is trying to do something for the people of this country. Whether you agree with him or not, credit needs to be given.

Wright is only trying to make a name for himself, because any truly religious person would try to help make a positive difference.

Wright needs to get together with the Rev. Al Sharpton and merge their two congregations into one big, angry and negative church.

I do not believe that Wright represents Obama in any way at all.

I finally have reached the end of my rope with Obama. I can’t believe that he was in that “church” for 20 years, unaware of the vile rhetoric that Wright spewed all that time.

I am trying to avoid the Clinton campaign’s joy over this, because I won’t vote for her, either. Hillary Rodham Clinton is the product of entitlement and narcissism.

I will find a candidate to vote for – even if I have to write her in myself.

I think that many find Wright’s message offensive because it is true in many respects, and that is something that Americans can’t come to grips with.

Anytime this notion of American moral superiority is questioned, it finds roaring criticism from those who have benefited from the unjust racial and economic conventions that are prevalent in this country or those who are enamoured with this fairy tale of our exceptional morals.

Here we have the first black man in the history of America, with a real chance of winning the highest office in the land, only to be sabotaged by his own minister.

I am not an Obama supporter, but I certainly sympathize with the position this un- stable nut-job has put Obama in.

If anything, Wright’s tirade against him and against America, and the idea he can call himself a “minister,” just reinforce the fact that he does not deserve to be speaking for God or the country he lives in.

Move on, Wright. The Civil War is over, and slavery has long been abolished. Find something else to hang your destructive hat on.

It looks like Obama’s yellow brick road to the most powerful position on Earth is filled with some potholes.

The left-wing media have grabbed the magic carpet they put him on and now have to tread on eggshells due to the fact that Obama is being sabotaged by his spiritual leader.

It took his insane priest, who obviously has an anti-American agenda of his own and doesn’t care if his 16-year religious pupil gets to be the president.

Thank God. You can always count on a liberal.

It is overwhelmingly clear that Wright is a wacko, racist, conspiracy theorist. Yet Obama continued to return to his radical preaching, week after week.

I don’t know about you, but when I disagree with something on the TV, radio or in church, I flip the channel or get up and leave.

Obama only feels this way now that he needs the white vote to have a chance at the nomination.
